West at White Pines Golf Course
Rating Snapshot
About
Situated just 30 minutes from downtown Chicago, White Pines Golf Club has been a popular spot for both locals and visitors. The club offers two courses, the East and the West. The West Course is longer than the East by 400 yards and considered slightly more challenging. The layout is relatively tight and there is an abundance of trees, which means you'll need to be accurate to do well. The greens are large and challenging with difficult-to-read breaks. There is also minimal, but strategic bunkering along the greensides. The fairways provide plenty of variety with some that are narrow and heavily tree-lined and others that are wide with no trees in sight. The golf course has several challenging holes but it's forgiving enough for beginners to approach with confidence.

Terrible bunkers
As I indicated with the title, the sand bunkers have no sand in them and very dry, very hard to get the club under the ball without hitting the ball. They also decided to put sand on the greens, I know they do this every year but there was alot. I would of liked a heads up. Ive noticed this year they aren't keeping the coarse as well as they used to. The tee boxes extremly dry, broke 4 tees trying to t up.
Don’t Bother
Trash everywhere. Chewed up tee boxes. Half dead greens. Don’t let the nice practice greens fool you. The greens at this place are awful. Tee boxes are bad. Bunkers not raked. Garbage all over the course. Embarrassing. Don’t bother. Star away!
This course is good for all levels
We were allowed to have individual carts which is good given the virus uptick. Pace was slow, had to wait on every hole. Course was in great condition but players behind us were anxious & hit down on us a few times when it was obvious that we couldn’t play faster due to over crowding ahead of us. Otherwise a good round.
Easy and fun for the price.
Pretty straight wide open course. Greens a very easy to read, they’re all straight. The sand traps are concrete with a little sand sprinkled on top. But $40 for 18 and $60 for 36 can’t really beat it.
Beautiful Dick Nugent course
Good course played back tee with one of 191 yard par 3 hole reduce to white tee for variation distances.
and the last hole played white tee still over 400 yard challenge with 30 yard LW.
putting not hard which I got a 31 putts (best of my year)
Nice Course
This course is well kept and has beautiful landscapes.
I’ve played both the East and West courses and have never been disappointed. The golf carts have GPS, that help with distance. And it’s in a great location in proximity to Elmwood Park. Definitely recommended.
golf cart restrictions
Bunkers were poor quality of sand. Too many golf restrictions as to where to drive the cart. The gps didn’t work well, and too many advertisements on it. The staff at the pro shop didn’’t inform us of what tee to start on . Not a good day!
Oh no oh no
Biggest problem is the carts. Kept on dying, computer system worked on first hole and back 9. Does not let you driver out of cart path had to push it multiple time and reset. Ruined golf experience. Also carts needs to be cleaned grass, mud, rocks was in the basket in the back
